    Compute the mean number of threads created for, say, the top 5-10% most active users over 1, 2, 3, ..., 7 days and pick the most representative value as a limit over the respective number of days. That is, a user would be allotted no more than N threads per M days.

    I think most users will never even come close to said limit, and those that do are potentially annoying users, bots, spammers, etc...

    EDIT:
    Or potentially more effective, limiting the ratio of say, users_most_recent_threads:N_most_recent_threads. This directly addresses the problem Serated mentioned.

    For example, a user cannot author more than 10% of the 100 most recent threads.
    Sounds like you might be a bit afraid to lose to him. :3
    There is a thread limit, you cant post 2 new threw within 10 seconds of each other, but as far as their creation, go nuts.

    Well, you raised a valid point. Your claim is that one out of six of the current Misc. threads are authored by Animedude5555 and that no other member has done this. So, impose a limit. It's technically not even a limit to any other member since it has never happened before ...

    Then everyone wins. Animedude5555 can start threads sometimes, and everyone else who complains about his threads will see fewer of his theads. The limit doesn't affect anyone else and if it did, maybe that user is starting too many threads too frequently anyway.

    Nothing wrong with about a little healthy competition. I still dont think a limit would work; looking again the current most currents thread in MISC, Animedude post one on average at a rate of about 1 every day. So that's not really a terrible flood of bad threads so much as it shows that just no one else is making threads that attract enough to attention. For instance, we're posting in one of his threads right now and derailing it quite hard, thereby making it seem livelier than it really is.

    touche. Then I agree with you; more attractive threads are needed.

    Sorry to derail this thread.

    It's not a matter of how often he posts but the quality. And his quality right now is below bottom barrel. should others need to post yes, but that doesn't change the quality of his posts. Lets look at some examples.

    First
    : At most belongs in a blog. Even then it's pointless and he spams blog with these kinds of things multiple times a day.

    Second
    : This one reveals his inability to change while also being a hypocrite. Which I pointed out in said thread. He refuses to change. He's been trying to stir controversy for years now and changes stances on things so often it seems to change with every thread he posts. In this case he's now against censorship, according to that thread, but when he came here he was all for it.

    Third: Creates threads and cries when other threads of his where locked.

    Fourth: Not much needs said about this one.

    He's simply too far sunk at this point. He keeps saying he'll change but always goes back to what he was doing in the first place. At this point it's cry wolf. No one's believing him about changing at this point simply because we know he wont. So the problem isn't the number of threads being made but the user making them.

    I find it quite hilarious that I've had more than one user tell chat is boring and lame without me. But ok. haha Anyone who thinks they have any single clue about me or what I've about is sorely mistaken.

    i dunno. i'll put them on ignore but i dont like seeing other users getting sucked into trap arguments until they become so annoyed and angry that they blow up or quit the site.

    Actually it's when you start permabanning everyone just because you don't like them rather than because they broke rules that sites like this die.

    you of course are free to either leave or, as I do, not participate in threads posted on topics or by people you have no interest in. Nobody is forcing you to read anything around here you know.

    Asking AF (or the mods thereof) to ban the likes of Animedude is like asking Batman to kill the Joker; it's a symbiotic relationship, hence--not going to happen.

    As for the "cheap a** camper's gun"; I'm more concerned about the eyepiece; it looks like a cucumber attached to a set of broken headphones.

    True. Moderators are here because they enjoy hanging out ont his site too. if they can weild some oblique power, wellt hat's just gravy. They aren't going to ban people just because someone doesn't like them or their topics because if they did ultimately there would end up being nobody to discuss or argue with because everyone left would agree on everything and would soon run out of things to talk about.



    As for Star trek there is a list that should help.

    If I Am Ever a Starfleet Captain...
    102. I will design my ship's tactical systems so that I do not have to personally direct every single shot fired.
    103. I will put surge suppressors in the circuitry of my ship, so that a shot striking some distant portion does not cause a control panel on the bridge to explode.
    104. I will design my ships so that command and control functions cannot be hot-wired from a wall panel in the recreation bay.
    105. I will design redundancy into all ship systems, so that the loss of one component will not cripple the entire vessel.
    106. When combat is imminent, my ship's computer will be programmed so that enemy troops beaming aboard will be immediately beamed into empty space, or the originating ship's reactor core if possible. It will also deliver a kilo of antimatter to the bridge of the ship in question.
    107. When the enemy ship decloaks and is arming weapons, I will immediately open fire on it, instead of waiting for it to fire three or four times.
    108. When a comrade defects to the enemy, I will have all passwords changed, and as soon as it is practical I will have the computer disconnected, its memory flushed, and the approved software reloaded from the original secured CD-ROMs.
    109. Anyone who cannot be entertained by books, music, a good game of cards and a well-stocked bar will not be allowed to crew my ship. Hence there will be no need for a holodeck on my ship.
    110. After capturing a space station from an enemy, I will have the enemy's computer systems removed, melted down into slag, and dumped into the nearest stellar object. A new computer will then be installed.
    111. If a crew member is a sanctimonious coward who continually gets us all into trouble through his greed, I shall, after the third or fourth episode of this behavior, act to preserve myself and other comrades only, and let him be destroyed by the mess he made for himself.
    112. Under no circumstance will I agree to not develop or employ any particular technology.
    113. If I have a technologically superior foe who is intent on eliminating my whole civilization, and I am offered a means of utterly annihilating this foe for all time, I will use it.
    114. I will install seatbelts in my space vessels, and have pressure suits and pressure locks at regular intervals.
    115. Technology that chronically malfunctions will be removed from my ship.
    116. To prevent the computer from being reprogrammed by every Tom, Dick and Harry that sneaks on board, its software will be stored in ROM chips that are soldered to the motherboard; RAM will be reserved for data only.
    117. I will design the greatest possible degree of manual back-up into my space vessels, so that when my on-board computer begins to act strangely, I can power it down via a switch located next to my seat on the bridge, and yet not be left totally helpless.
    118. I will not allow anyone to read the technical manuals and blueprints of my ship unless they work in Ops or Engineering and therefore have a need-to-know. All personnel will be properly cleared prior to assignment to Ops or Engineering. The technical manuals and blueprints of a totally fictitious craft will be freely available.
    119. If my ship's drive or weapons systems require lengthy charge times between uses, I shall research and develop equipment that can handle a heavier duty cycle.
    120. My ship's computer will have a clock rate of at least one megahertz and be programmed in C or assembler so that important calculations take a few milliseconds instead of an hour or so.
    121. If a member of my crew can perfectly mimic my voice giving the commands to take control of my ship, additional security measures they cannot mimic will be added, such as palmprints or retinal scans.
    122. If my ship is constantly being bugged, robbed, invaded, or taken over, I will replace my security officer, no matter how cool a character he is.
    123. If knowledge of the operating frequency of a ship's system aids in efforts to disable that system, I will employ an arcane development known as "frequency-hopping."
    124. Before letting crewmembers take leave on a planet, I will ensure that they are welcome and that its government recognizes concepts like Rule of Law, Trial by Jury, Presumption of Innocence, and so forth. I will also check out the local laws so that none of my crew ends up on death row for scratching his nose in public or some other stupid thing.
    125. If one of my crewmembers is unjustly imprisoned and/or condemned, and the officials with whom I speak express a marked disinterest in his actual guilt or innocence, I will not waste time trying to gather exonerating evidence. Instead, I will immediately mount a rescue mission.
    126. When beaming into hostile territory I will instruct my transporter chief to beam me into a defensible position, with the landing party facing outwards in a circle. I will have my weapon in my hand (not my pocket) before I beam down.
    127. If I beam off of a vessel that is still hostile, I will arrange to leave behind as large an explosive device as I can obtain.
    128. I will not have both rotating and non-rotating sections on a ship. If I need rotational gravity, I will spin the whole ship. Any navigational computer that cannot deal with this will be replaced with one that can.
    129. I will follow the advice of my Chief Medical Officer. If I am not at 100% of my usual level of physical fitness, I will stick to desk duty unless the fate of something genuinely important hangs in the balance.
    130. I will assume that all super-weapons are operational until proven otherwise, especially if they appear to be unguarded.
    131. All critical data and software will be backed up in off-line storage.
    132. A random alien's claims about his/her/its race's cultural values and attitudes will be given no more credence than a random human's claims about human cultural values and attitudes.
    133. My crew shall be trained in the fine arts of tactical combat, such as dispersing assets, walking point, advance, flank and rear guards, etc.
    134. I will not throw infantry into close-quarter combat with creatures of leviathan stature, but shall turn such affairs over to the artillery crew.
    135. If my ship is whisked to the far side of the galaxy, leaving us with a seventy-year journey home, and a super-being offers to take us home instantly in exchange for having his baby, I'll agree and ask what we can get for two babies.
    136. If anyone beams down and their personal communicator drops carrier, all life forms within ten meters of the last known location shall be beamed directly to the brig. A large well-armed security detail will be waiting.
    137. The people in charge of Sick Bay, Engineering, and R&D will not be the only people staffing those functions, nor shall they accompany away teams.
    138. I will not ask "What does God need with a space ship?" and then order a torpedo strike. I will order the torpedo strike first, and ponder theology on the trip home.
    139. My people will be assigned duties commensurate with their skills. I will not task pilots with leading a ground assault, infiltrating enemy camps, etc.
    140. If I board a derelict ship, and it appears that the former crew and passengers all died in some horrible fashion, I will immediately leave the ship, destroy it, and toss the wreckage into the nearest stellar object.
    141. If I am in red alert status and discover that it was a false alarm, I will stay in red alert for a while before standing down.
    142. Anyone I imprison will be stripped, scanned, and given a prison uniform. This will prevent them from assembling weapons from pieces hidden in their regular clothes.
    143. Any crew member who begins to act strangely will be immediately relieved of duty and confined to the sick bay, pending a complete screening to determine if their personality has been subverted.
    144. I will not let the Whiz Kid conduct research aboard my ship. If he's got a theory that he's itching to test, I will deposit him on an uninhabited planet in friendly space, and make sure that I'm out of the system before he's done unpacking.
    145. I will not depart the starbase unless my complement of Marines are on board.
    146. I will hold repel-boarders drills on my ship. These drills will be held at random hours so that everyone learns what in Klotho's name they're supposed to be doing, no matter what the circumstances.
    147. My junior officers will be notified that Academy cadets cannot be field-commissioned, and should they come upon a ship crewed entirely by such, they will immediately take command and return them to where they can receive adult supervision.
    148. I will never send the infantry down on missions that are better suited for orbital bombardment.
    149. If the issued zap guns have "stun" and "kill" modes, they will be set to the former only when the user is about to fire at something that is wanted alive.
    150. If my opponent can adapt to various forms of attack, rendering them useless, I will use some imagination and start attacking in as many different ways as possible.
    Anime is a lot like sex. Done right it's a beautiful act of creation that brings a little more light into the world. If it's sick and wrong... it's even better.
